Fly

The day we met,
I was broken, lost.
Quite possibly my lowest.
Your heart was silent,
Spinning on the dance floor.
Your impulsivity,
Carefree intensity.
Not just a bandaid,
But that first step after surgery,
The overwhelming pain
Overcome by the motivation
To be better.
For me, for you, for us.
Each step on my own,
Becoming easier, stronger.
The cautionary restrictions
Removed, allowing healing.
Quickly engulfed in
Your impulsivity
Undeniable intensity.
I am set free,
Running to the highest point.
My heart is overflowing,
Covering a rocky trail
Of forgiveness and acceptance
Of self, of you, of us.
Each step on my own,
Becoming easier, stronger.
Overcome by the desire
To fly.
